Multiplication: Definition, Symbol, Table
Multiplication is a mathematical operation that involves two or more numbers to produce a third number called the product. The numbers that are multiplied are called the factors. Multiplication is a basic math operation, along with addition, subtraction, and division.
Multiplication can also be thought of as scaling quantities. For example, 3 being multiplied by 2 gives 6 as a result.
Let’s learn about the methods, formulas, and examples of multiplication in maths.
